My macbook air was purchased late 2010. Does that mean it will not support mirroring? Can I purchase anything to enable mirroring?

Your computer is too old to support native mirroring. You can use 3rd party software like Airparrot, though results will vary so try it first.

Are you referring to mirroring or you just unable to set up homesharing.
AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

HT5628 why cant i install windows 8 on a macbook air 13-inch, Late 2010?

why cant i install windows 8 on a macbook air 13-inch, Late 2010?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You can install Windows 8 on your computer because it can run Windows 8, but you can't install the Windows support software that makes Windows run properly, so probably things like the Wi-Fi card, the sound and the graphic card may not work without these drivers.
That's just an Apple restriction. Apple has decided to give Windows 8 support to the most recent Macs, leaving old Macs with Windows 7. Unfortunately, to run Windows 8 properly, the only option is to install it on a virtual machine. Apart from that, if you want to install Windows 7 with Boot Camp, you can do it

HT201343 Can I use Air Play mirroring if my Macbook Air is from Late 2010 (I have Apple Tv).

Can I use Air Play mirroring if my Macbook Air is from Late 2010 (I have Apple Tv).

No.
You can only use Airplay.

Has anyone else noticed their macbook air (11-inch, Late 2010) fan running constantly?

Since i updated to 10.8.4, i've noticed the fan is running almost constantly on my Macbook Air (11-inch, Late 2010) and the computer gets very hot. I looked in Activity Monitor and saw that both Safari and Finder were using CPU, but it's by no means spiked. Anyone else notice this?

Try resetting your system's System Management Controller (SMC) to see if that helps the problem. The SMC is responsible for managing the feedback for the fans to respond to temperature changes.
See here for how to reset it for your system: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964

Macbook air 11.6' (late 2010 model) screen dims after few seconds and does not recover.

Hi,
I am running win7 under bootcamp on a macbook air 11.6'' late 2010 model (1.4 dual core, 4Gb memory, 64Gb ssd). A few days ago the screen started to dim a few seconds after bootup. Even if I pres any of the keys it does not light up again. However, if I connect to an external display it works fine. I use it for work and often I am mobile so I really need the display to work. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

Found another forum with the same problem: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1560774, including another youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaGOKuwqsaw. The severity of the problem in this link looks worse than my problem. Mine is less severe than what's in this video, but more severe that what's in the first youtube link I provided.
The posts in that forum claim: 1) the problem began after upgrading to a newer OS, 2) it occurs after waking from sleep, and 3) that closing the lid for 10 seconds is a work-around fix.
Would be great if Apple fixes this. I won't buy another Mac, desktop or laptop, if they don't. Macs are too expensive to only get 2 years from, and in my opinion thay are not that much better than other options. I'm going to post a bug report on Apple's web site.

What version MacBook Air do you have? Usually identified by the year you bought it, i.e. mid-year 2012, 2011, etc. Also, what OSX are you running? (please provide OSX ver number, i.e. 10.8.2 for latest Mountain Lion, etc.)
Not sure I can help you directly but for others to lend a hand, they'll need to know this information to make a sound suggestion. I see you're new to posting here so this will help you in the future.
Good luck.

My Ipod mini will not sync...A duplicate file name was specified. What does that mean?

My Ipod mini will not sync. I get the message that A duplicate file name was specified. What does that mean and how do I correct it so I can download my new purchases?
Thank you

Refer to my earlier reply, but here is a quick fix to the corrupted filesystem, which might work
Open My Computer
Right-click your iPod -> click Properties.
Click the Tools Tab -> Error Checking ->
Check "Automatically fix file system error"
k Start.
Let the scan complete, eject your iPod and reconnect.
Good Luck!

I downloaded a past purchased album songs individually. I clicked on the cloud button. I'm sure that means you will not be charged again.

I downloaded a past purchased album songs individually. I clicked on the cloud button to do it. I'm pretty sure that mean you will not be charged again.

Its just that i previously asked similar question and one guy answered that you have to download a past purchase again like the original purchase. In this case the orginal purchase was the whole album. Also I then downloaded the whole album after downloading the individual songs.

I have an Apple Air Book and I am very satisfied with it except there are video that I cannot see. The reason is that Quick Time will not support the video. What can I do to be able to get these videos?

Get Flip4Mac (for Windows Media videos):

And Perian for everything else:

You should be able to play most videos with QuickTime player once both are installed.

HT201272 I've accidentally deleted purchases from appearing in iCloud, and iTunes will not even let me re-purchase them, let alone make them appear in "previous purchases" to download.

I've accidentally deleted purchases from appearing in iCloud, and iTunes will not even let me re-purchase them, let alone make them appear in "previous purchases" to download.

Are the items still available in the store, and if so have you hidden them (hiding and unhiding) ? Not all content types are available for re-downloading in all countries, and if the content provider has removed an item from the store then it also won't appear for re-downloading.
